Description
Smart Switching, Energy Monitoring, and Load Protection in One Compact Device
Live Electrical WCB1-63N – Wi-Fi Smart Energy Switch – 1P+N, 1–63A, with kWh Metering and Protection
The Live Electrical WCB1-63N is a DIN-rail mountable Wi-Fi-enabled smart switch offering intelligent load control, kWh metering, and built-in protection functions. Rated 1–63A and designed with 1P+N (single-phase plus neutral) switching, this compact device helps you remotely manage circuits via mobile app or voice control—ideal for EV chargers, lighting, heating, and more.
⚠️ Important Note: This unit does not replace an MCB or RCBO. It does not include earth fault protection and must be used in conjunction with appropriate protective devices.
⚠️ Please note: Unlike the WRB1-63N model, the WCB1-63N does not include leakage (RCD) protection. It provides kWh metering, voltage and overload protection, but must be installed with a separate RCBO or RCD for full circuit protection, including earth fault safety.

⚙️ Customisation & Use Case
Although it offers robust protection features, the WCB1-63N is a control and monitoring device, not a circuit breaker. It must be installed alongside appropriate overcurrent and earth fault protection (e.g., MCBs, RCBOs, or RCDs) depending on the circuit requirements.
✅ Summary
The Live Electrical WCB1-63N Wi-Fi Smart Switch provides energy monitoring, remote control, and protection for circuits up to 63A. It includes undervoltage, overvoltage, overload, and overcurrent protection, but should not be used as a replacement for an MCB or RCBO, as it lacks earth fault detection. Ideal for smart, app-controlled power management.
